.....sorry but that song is terrible...i listen to everything, from rap to hip-hop to country and jazz...But it sounds like someones turned their bass all the way up in a little aveo:P (i would know...i have a freind who went out and bought one and tried that...20 min later he had no speakers )

But back to the OP - Looks like a decent setup. im personally looking at just getting a little 12' Kenwood sub and amp when i redo all my audio in my car (Kenwood nav system with custom aux and usb ports where the heated seat buttons would go, kenwood 12' sub with amp and all kenwood all around with tweeters and whatnot) But it looks like MTX is a pretty good brand so i would go for it

DUDE thats a friggen deal! I got mine for a little over $200 new, crappy version of mtx's dont even remember the name, but they have a 200w amp and they still hit decent. Cant hear me like king kong but it does a great job.

hahaha
I found on another site
The amp and speakers + a 4 gauge wiring kit for $202


All reviews people say the speakers are underpowered by the ampilifier but it still hits hard, most people ended up upgrading the amp to get better performance.. I could care less really, i just want some extra bass..

For the price
You can't beat it

what brand is the wiring. saying "4g kit" is like saying "4 cylinder engine"... for that price that wire has to be ghetto ass wire but u dont need 4g for an amp like that especially in our cars. so how bullshit it is is the question

my amp and subs are the same way they are Magnum's by MTX, people say up grade to 500-750w and they hit very good. not competition or anything but enough to get a headache.

Do it!! A little extra bass to make the music sound good, not so the whole neighborhood can here it. I wanna slap the **** out of people who pull up at a red light then crank their system up and rattle my whole car. Lol or the idiots with boat speakers outside their cars.

Is it bad that my stock Pioneer system gives me a little massage?

And I really don't mean to highjack the thread but I don't want to waste space making another one. What's the difference between a 10", 12", and 15" sub? Is it the different kinds of bass they hit? Like say a 10" hits low bass and a 12" hits high bass? I have no idea on the differences lol.

And one more thing. My speakers seem to be making a little bit of a buzzing sound sometimes. So what are some good (or decent) speakers that stay behind the factory grilles and under the rear deck?

guess it depends on what you consider a massage

the size of the cone has 2 qualities that can happen. a smaller cone can hit tighter bass then a larger cone. a larger cone can get louder then a smaller cone. BUT thats like saying a i4 has less HP or less torque then a v6 or v8. yes that can be the case but isn't always. when looking at cheaper stuff (like the mtx's posted... sorry OP) then these general rules tend to apply more then a more expensive sub.

i like the hertz energy 6X9

not trying to steal OP's thread but, quick question!

I have a friend that is upgrading his stock pioneer system. If I buy his 12" pioneer sub, can I run 2 of them? I have just the one 12" Pioneer stock sub. Would be nice to have 2 (one mounted on each side)

i would the hertz are bomb speakers. as far as sub i mean theres a million out there. even these terminators the OP is looking at arent really bad speakers. they are at least midway out of the options he has at that price.... so i mean just all depends. post up something specific your looking at and ill let u know

I know it's a good amount more than you're trying to spend, but i have a alpine type r 10" powered by an alpine mrp m500 amp and i absolutely love it. It hits hard, crisp, and is plenty loud.
